Cystitis glandularis: MR imaging characteristics in 27 patients.

Purpose: To explore the diagnostic characteristics of cystitis glandularis (CG) using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

Materials And Methods: A retrospective study was conducted on pathologically confirmed patients who underwent bladder MRI examination between January 2019 and November 2023. Image analysis was jointly conducted, with emphasis on lesion location, morphology, size, signal intensity, and pattern of enhancement, by two genitourinary radiologists with 22 and 15 years of experience, respectively.

Differentiation between renal epithelioid angiomyolipoma and clear cell renal cell carcinoma using clear cell likelihood score.

Purpose: Clear cell likelihood score (ccLS) may be a reliable diagnostic method for distinguishing renal epithelioid angiomyolipoma (EAML) and clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). In this study, we aim to explore the value of ccLS in differentiating EAML from ccRCC.

Methods: We performed a retrospective analysis in which 27 EAML patients and 60 ccRCC patients underwent preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at our institution.

Using imaging to diagnose lipomatous ganglioneuroma: a case report and literature review.

We report a case of a well-defined lesion in an asymptomatic patient with lipomatous ganglioneuroma (LG) located close to the left thoracic spine. Its intensity was heterogeneous with adipocytes. The lesion extended into the spinal canal through the enlarged left intervertebral without bony erosion.
